We welcome Farmers/Ranchers from the following Northern New Mexico counties: Taos, Colfax, Mora, San Miguel, Santa Fe, Sandoval, Los Alamos, Rio Arriba and Costilla County, Colorado.
All applications require pre-approval before your arrival at market.
 If you intend bringing fresh produce directly from your farm, the application process to sell at market is very straightforward, download Farmers Application at bottom of this page.  Farmer/Rancher Vendors are welcome to apply at least one week prior to attending market for the first time this season.

  • Download and familiarize yourself with our Rules & Regulations in our Vendor Agreement as all vendors are required to abide by the market regulations.  All applicants are required to read and sign in agreement of the 2023 Vendor Agreement which contains all of TFM’s rules & regulations and turn a copy into us to participate in the market.
  • Download the appropriate application form from below by first asking yourself:
    are you a Farmer/Rancher?  You plan to sell only raw food/meat that you grow.
    OR are you a Non-Farmer such as a Baker? or a Prepared Food Producer? or a Value-Added Producer?
  • If you are applying as a Non-Farmer Vendor, such as Baker, Prepared Food or Value Added space your application is due April 1 2024.  Please note that these are juried items and need to comply to specific guidelines and only a small number are selected from these categories every year. Approval process will be on an as-needed/local basis. These categories fill up well before beginning of season!!!  Please wait for application approval by April 20, 2024 – we will contact you by phone or e-mail.
